1  Precious promise God doth give thee,

       Thou, the weary passerby,

    On the way from earth to glory:

       "I will guide thee with Mine eye."

 2  When temptations fierce assail thee,

       When thy trusted helpers fly,

    Let this promise ring within thee,

       "I will guide thee with Mine eye."

 3  When thy secret hopes have perished

       In the grave of years gone by,

    Let this promise still be cherished,

       "I will guide thee with Mine eye."

 4  When the shades of life are falling,

       And the hour has come to die,

    Hear thy faithful Pilot calling,

       "I will guide thee with Mine eye."
